Teen Shot Outside Oxon Hill High School

OXON HILL, Md. (AP) – Police say a shooting in a Maryland high school’s parking lot has hospitalized a 17-year-old student.

Prince George’s County police Cpl. Lamar Alexander tells The Washington Post the Oxon Hill High School student is in critical but stable condition and expected to survive after being shot Monday evening. Alexander says the 11th-grader was shot in the upper body when he went outside to meet several people inside a vehicle.

Police did not release further details.

Additional police and security officers were on hand as school opened Tuesday.
